What it says it does

THE ORGANIZATION CONDUCTS RITUALS, CALLED DEGREES, WHICH ARE INTENDED TO BE LIKE COLLEGE CLASSES PERFORMED BY MEMBERS IN A THEARTRICAL MANNER TO TEACH GOOD MEN TO BECOME BETTER MEN. THE DEGREES FOCUS ON POSITIVE PRINCIPALS LIKE INTEGRITY, CHARITY, TRUTH, HONESTY AND MANY OTHER GREAT PRINCIPALS TO ENABLE ALL MEMBERS TO BE BETTER CITIZENS TO THEIR FAMILIES, COUNTRY AND FAITHS. WE ARE NOT A RELIGION BUT WE UTILIZE RELIGIOUS PRINCIPALS FROM ALL RELIGIONS IN OUR DEGREES. MEN OF ALL COLORS AND RELIGIONS ARE WELCOME IN OUR FRATERNITY. WE PUT ON ALL 29 DEGREES FOR NEW INCOMING MEMBERS TWICE A YEAR. WE HOLD MONTHLY BUSINESS MEETINGS AND PROVIDE EDUCATION FOR ALL MEMBERS AT THE SCOTISH RITE BUILDING. THE SCOTISH RITE BUILDING IS AN HISTORIC STRUCTURE AND IS AN INTERGAL PART OF PROGRAMMING.
